Could you be found guilty because your Amazon Dot testified against you in a court of law? That’s what could happen to a New Hampshire woman who is accused of first-degree murder of two women.
The Echo Dot recorded the alleged attack, according to prosecutors.
A spokesperson for Amazon said they won’t release customer information “without a valid and binding legal demand properly served on us.”
This is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it’s so nice to have have devices that listen and do what we tell them to do on command. But on the other, that means Amazon is always watching which poses a huge security risk. Do we really trust Amazon with all of that information about ourselves?
